Unification and Grammatical Theory
(Cascadilla Press, 1986)
This paper informally presents a new view of grammar that has emerged from a number of distinct but related lines of investigation in theoretical and computational linguistics. Under this view, many current linguistic ...
A uniform architecture for parsing and generation
(Association for Computational Linguistics, 1988)
The use of a single grammar for both parsing and generation is an idea with a certain elegance, the desirability of which several researchers have noted. In this paper, we discuss a more radical possibility: not only can ...
A simple reconstruction of GPSG
(Association for Computational Linguistics, 1986)
Like most linguistic theories, the theory of generalized phrase structure grammar (GPSG) has described language axiomatically, that is, as a set of universal and language-specific constraints on the well-formedness of ...
The semantics of grammar formalisms seen as computer languages
(Association for Computational Linguistics, 1984)
The design, implementation, and use of grammar formalisms for natural language have constituted a major branch of computational linguistics throughout its development. By viewing grammar formalisms as just a special case ...
Sentence disambiguation by a shift-reduce parsing technique
(Association for Computational Linguistics, 1983)
Native speakers of English show definite and consistent preferences for certain readings of syntactically ambiguous sentences. A user of a natural-language-processing system would naturally expect it to reflect the same ...
Asymmetric Melting and Freezing Kinetics in Silicon.
(American Physical Society, 1986)
We report measurements of the melting velocity of amorphous Si relative to that of (100) crystalline Si. These measurements permit the first severe experimental test of theories describing highly nonequilibrium freezing ...
Solute Trapping in Silicon by Lateral Motion of {111} Ledges
(American Physical Society, 1986)
The orientation dependence of the nonequilibrium partition coefficient of Bi in Si at constant solid-liquid interface velocity has been measured. The partition coefficient, measured with pulsed-laser melting techniques on ...
Phase Transformation and Impurity Redistribution During Pulsed Laser Irradiation of Amorphous Silicon Layers
(American Institute of Physics, 1984)
Dissipation-Theory Treatment of the Transition from Diffusion-Controlled to Diffusionless Solidification
(American Institute of Physics, 1983)
The steady-state velocity of a planar liquid-solid interface is predicted by calculating the free energy dissipated by irreversible processes at the interface and equating it to the available driving free energy. A solute ...
Quantized Layer Growth at Liquid-Crystal Surfaces
(American Physical Society, 1986)
We report x-ray reflectivity measurements on the free surface of dodecylcyanobiphenyl (12CB) at the isotropic to smectic-A phase transition. At about \(10^{\circ}C\) above \(T_{IA}\), smectic-A-like ordering develops at ...
